Keeping on top of an endless Twitter feed or a piling-up RSS list can be a little daunting, even more so now that Google are planning on killing Reader.

So, each and every week (after a brief hiatus) Gamebrit brings together a selection of some of the gaming stories that caught our eye and are worth your attention — here’s your round-up for the week ending Sunday, March 17th.

Sit back, relax and grab a drink and give the gaming articles you may have missed this week a read:

Kinect Star Wars uses its influence over the minds of the British public to assume control over the UK All-Format Top 40, making it the first time a Kinect title has ever taken the top spot.

Its reign brings a swift end to the five week run of Electronic Arts as the hoarder of sales above all others, with the likes of FIFA Street, which drops to second (with a small 3% increase in sales). Mass Effect 3 is down to third. FIFA 12 gains a 48% sales gain over last week to take fourth, whilst Tiger Woods PGA Tour 13 (-10%) completes the top five.

Sales improve the performance of Modern Warfare 3 (+76%) at sixth, SSX (+72%) is up three places to seventh and Mario & Sonic London 2012 Olympic Games (+66%) comes in at eighth. Battlefield 3 (+55%) and The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim (+57%) land at ninth and tenth respectively, having not quite matched mid-table acceleration.

The only new title in the Top 40 this week is Devil May Cry HD Collection, comprising of the first three titles in the series, landing at 18.
